      6362677 Change parallel GC collector default number of parallel GC threads.
      considered Niagra platform but seems to not consider
      other Sparc servers with large # of Cpu's , such as the M9000
      which can have 64 or more cpus. There may be others.

      In this particular case, the customer had an M9000 w/64 cpu's
      JDK 6.0_19

      It used the

      8 + (n - 8) * 5/8

      where n is the number of hardware threads. The
      exception is for Niagara2 and later CMT machines
      where it is

      8 + (n - 8) * 5/16


      If it was a Niagra the 5/16 rule would have been used
      rather than 5/8 rule.
